Ultra violet: 10 ways to work Pantone’s 2018 color of the year into your life
The color authority names Pantone 18-3838 Ultra Violet as their color of the year

MANILA, Philippines – The Pantone Color Institute seems to be in a purple haze this year. Months after it created a custom purple in August in honor of late rockstar Prince, the color authority also revealed their shade of the year for 2018: a blue-based purple that is every bit as mysterious as the year ahead.

The specific shade is Pantone 18-3838 Ultra Violet, and this is how they described the shade on their website:

“Nuanced and full of emotion, the depth of Pantone 18-3838 Ultra Violet symbolizes experimentation and non-conformity, spurring individuals to imagine their unique mark on the world, and push boundaries through creative outlets.”

Celebrate 2018 and get your creative juju going by bringing in a touch of Ultra Violet into your life.
